Balbriggan Dojo. Come and Try Aikido Day. 16 June 2024
We were delighted to participate in the Come-and-Try campaign in partnership with Fingal Sports County Council in the frame of International Men's Health Week. The goal of this campaign was to encourage Irish men to try out various sports and provide them with an opportunity to join the club of their choice to become more active and healthy. Today, we hosted a free Come-and-Try Aikido class open to all men residing in Fingal.
The class began with warming-up stretching exercises followed by basic ukemi drills and core-strength development.
After that, we moved through the main points of the Aikido technical curriculum and discussed the difference between basic (kihon) practice and Aikido application techniques (oyo waza).
During the class, we covered the following techniques:
- Shomen Uchi Ikkyo Omote
- Demonstration: Shomen Uchi Ikkyo Ura, Nikkyo Omote & Ura
- Shomen Uchi Ikkyo Kotegaeshi
- Demonstration: Shomen Uchi Irimigage, Koshinage
- Shomen Uchi Shihonage
- Demonstration: Shomen Uchi Kokyunage variations from Shihonage
- Shomen Uchi Kokyunage
- Zagi Kokyuho
